The grass is always greener... What about the mud?

The grass is always greener on the other side. Everything tastes better on holiday.

As a PhD, I thought I'd check these things out, empirically that is. And after thorough investigation I can tell you that there is no significant difference in flavour and taste between Lake District, Peak District and Nottinghamshire mud. You get some subtle nuances, but mainly it sticks to your gums like too much toffee and makes you choke.So there, now you know and won't have to try it for yourself.

Whilst I am on culinary matters: I did find some very tasty sheep products on the hike around Crummock Water. Yum!
